At home work outs?

As I've mentioned before, I've been taking metformin to help with weight loss and I lost 4 pounds within the first two days. However, even with eating healthy and the medication, I've decided some exercise will help too. I don't go to a gym, but I do have a yoga mat, two 5 pound hand weights, and a glider (I think that's what it's called?). What are some/where to find good at home workouts for weightloss?

Youtube will have all the workouts you could ever want. As above, I'm a Fitness Blender fan, pretty much the only workouts I do aside from the odd run.4

YouTube has lots of yoga videos. Yoga with Adrienne and Yoga with Kassandra are my favorites.
I use Convict Conditioning (free pdf online) as a bodyweight strength training program. Strong Curves has a bodyweight version too. For any exercises that you're not sure about, you can find a YouTube video showing you how to do it.1 -
I second Yoga with Adriene. She has an entire playlist dedicated to beginners and a foundations of Yoga series where she breaks down some of the more common poses.1

bodybuilding.com is packed full of videos and tutorials on how to do each exercise. You could start out doing some body weight exercises and using your existing hand weights and then decide if you want to buy any more equipment. I bought a treadmill in February and it's the best thing I ever did for me weight loss. I use it 5 days a week for 45 mins and workout with weights for 30 mins. I have 2 'rest' days for muscle recovery.0

Jillian Michaels 30 day shred levels 1 and 2 are free on YouTube.
I also get total body weight workout lists off Pinterest. That's what I'm doing right now and I add in 8 mins of hiit cardio moves like jumping jacks, butt kicks, high knees etc.1 -
